Bedford based charity Swaziland Schools Projects celebrated its 25th anniversary last October and is still going strong! Its latest project is to renovate 13 classrooms at the remote Lundzi school in Eswatini (formerly called Swaziland).

The charity does not employ anyone either in the UK or in Eswatini and all work is undertaken by volunteers apart from building work which is by contracted builders.

False ceilings make a huge difference to the quality of teaching and learning as the tin roofs make classrooms very hot in summer and very cold in winter. Also when it rains, the tin means that pupils struggle to hear the teacher.

The photos show "before" and "after" with over 400 pupils now benefitting from the generosoity of donors.
